FOR SALESFORCE EMPLOYEES ...
Can the World Cancer Day
Solidarity Challenge count toward my VTO goals?
Yes,
your fundraising time for UICC.org and #WorldCancerDay can be
counted for VTO *provided you remember to do so in Volunteerforce.
FOR PLEDGE 1% COMPANIES ...
Will my company match
donations that I make to Ohana riding teams?
That depends on your company's specific policies and
processes. Most PLEDGE 1% companies do.
For example,
Salesforce.com has a standing policy that supports the matching of
employee donations to 501c3 charitable/nonprofit organizations up
to a certain limit. Employees just need to submit a verified
donation receipt and Salesforce will issue a matching donation
directly to the nonprofit. Again, certain rules and limits apply.
It is best to check with your company in advance. All that
considered, matching donations are a key way for us all to support
the global fight against cancer. Please be sure to make this part
of your team and fundraising strategy.
ABOUT DONATIONS ...
What if I am in another
country and my donors don't use U.S. currency?
NO
PROBLEM! While TEAM SALESFORCE OHANA will track overall team and
rider progress in U.S. dollars, your donors can select and make
donations in their local currencies using your team fundraising site.
What is the 501(c)3 Tax Identification Number for Union of International Cancer Control (UICC.org)?
UICC.org's EIN is 23-7208844
